@ivymullaley It's sad because it's believable... They've got a show on tv where you can watch people play a game show to decide whether or not their car gets repossessed. How sad is it that that's what's considered entertainment, watching peoples lives fall apart. You know this Ford show would be an instant hit.
"No, outdated equipment is pretty normal in a factory, but now that theres cameras everywhere our bosses make us follow the OSHA rules" -lol, that is not satire, that's actually what happens.
What's even more disturbing is that the basic facts depicted in the video ARE reality. All the Onion does is tweak the truth a little to make us realize that the truth is fucking dumb and depressing.
"Spike TV just announced a recession-era game show from the producers of Jersey Shore. Titled Repo Games, the show follows two real-life repo men who give debtors one last chance to keep their cars by playing in a quiz show."
Just saying.
